Garmin P19 Nylon 12° Tilt Transducer – 8-Pin

Tilted Element Thru-Hull

Minimize Your Drag

The Garmin P19 Nylon 12° Tilt Transducer has been a popular choice for boaters for many years. It features a low-profile design with a large sensitive ceramic element, allowing for deep echosounding up to 206 meters (700 feet). With only 5mm (2/10 inches) of the housing extending outside of the hull, this transducer minimizes drag.

The P19 is a plastic transducer that provides a vertical beam without the need for a fairing. Inside the housing, the ceramic element is tilted to provide built-in deadrise compensation. This means that the transducer is able to compensate for the angle of the hull, resulting in a more accurate depth reading.
